Abstract

Sera from 41 mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus) in Yosemite National Park, California, were tested for neutralizing antibody to 17 arboviruses which are known or suspected to occur in California. Antibody titers to California encephalitis, Trivittatus, Cache Valley, or Jerry Slough viruses were detected in 4 of the sera. Deer may be useful indicator hosts for the presence of arbovirus activity in a geographic area.
